This blog is about life with my husband who was diagnosed with Early Onset Alzheimer's and Frontal Lobe Dementia in 2008. He was 64 at the time although now, knowing more about the disease, Alzheimer's was present many, many years ago, which is why early detection is so important. As you read the blog the character "Al" that I created in 2008, represents the way that Alzheimer's is invading our daily lives.
There is an archive tab further down the page that starts from the beginning of our journey.

Living with Bob and Al

Since Sheri and Bob moved into their new little house, Sheri has been trying to get their little TV to work. Sheri is mumbling to herself as she is scanning the channels trying to get reception. Bob asks Sheri what she is doing, she replies trying to get the TV to work. "Al" replies " well I don't need an alarm clock anyway." Slightly annoyed Sheri states "This is a TV not a clock." "Al" says (slightly annoyed) well why does it say 8:30?" Sheri looking up from the remote sees "Al" looking at the clock. Sheri even more annoyed says "well, that is the clock." "Al" (even more annoyed) says to Sheri "then why did you say it was the TV?"
Sheri thinks it is time for bed... :)
